The observer training section in this edition will cover some very important reminders on reporting, an impor- tant tip on keeping birds away from your gauge, making sure to inform CoCoRaHS if you move to a different address and location, and some other useful and important information.

A great tip on keeping birds from making your gauge a perch: Here is a great tip submitted by husband and wife CoCoRaHS observers ―Valerie and John‖.

Those of us that measure precipitation for CoCoRaHS are often frustrated to find birds think the gauge is an ideal perch. Not only are their "deposits" annoying to clean, they can clog the gauge funnel hole and mess- up the collection measurements. A two-fold measure works best to prevent this problem. Birds generally prefer the highest perch in an area, so a taller alternate perch offered a few yards away is more attractive (figure 1). When that alone doesn't work, it's time for Jake the Fake Snake & Friends to stand guard (figure 2). Jake and his associates are available at the local Dollar Store for...a dollar apiece. Jake is positioned so that he moves a bit in the wind, but does not obstruct the gauge funnel in any way. I do shift him around a bit from time to time. Hopefully this saves someone else scrubbing out their gauge daily!

Entering Daily Zeros on the Daily Report Form: Please remember to send in your daily report on days without rainfall as this data is just as important as rain amounts on days of precipita- tion. This data gives your sta- tion a complete data set for the month and the year. Co- CoRaHS daily reports of zero precipitation are the single largest source of data for the US Drought Monitor Maps. So Figure 1: Higher perch to right of Figure 2: Snakes guarding rain gauge remember just because your gauge (circled) gauge read zero doesn’t against mean that value is worth zero. Please report those days of zero rain and a clear picture of drought conditions in your area is available for mapping.

Please report when you move: If you move from your current address and location to a different address and location please report the new address to CoCoRaHS Headquarters so a new station location can be made for mapping. This is important so data is not being reported for you old address and wil be accurate for your new location. Just go to co- corahs.org or send an e-mail to [email protected].

Misc. Information: The CoCoRaHS State Coordinator is now booking speaking engagements for 2016. If any organizations or groups would like a speaker for an event or organizational meeting please send an email to the following address: [email protected] If you are a CoCoRaHS observer and a member of Master Gardeners, Master Naturalist’s, Skywarn, or any other weather related organizations please mention to that organization about getting some of its members in CoCoRaHS and possibly having a speaker at their meetings.

Late October deluge in Houston-Galveston area

A strong upper level storm system combined with the remains of eastern Patricia and a de- veloping surface low off the middle and upper Texas coast to produce a moderate to heavy rainfall event for the region on the 24th and the 25th Record moisture levels were observed on the Brownsville sounding on the evening of the 24th for late October. Prior to the start of this rainfall event the region had endured over a month without rainfall. Rainfall began early in the afternoon of the 24th and lasted to the morning hours of the 25th. Rainfall rates were generally less than 1.0-2.0 inches per hour for the entire event, but the rainfall was consistent for 12-14 hours allowing totals to add up over time.

A second strong upper level storm system in a week fueled by high moisture levels produced a band of excessive rainfall and flooding across portions of Harris County on October 31. Thunderstorms rapidly de- veloped shortly after midnight on the 31st over Matagorda and Fort Bend Counties and moved into Harris County around 1:00 a.m. The thunderstorms trained or moved over the same areas between 1:00 a.m. and 4:00 a.m. with significant rainfall occurring over the southwest and south-central portions of Harris County into the east-central part of the county. Several torna- does touched down in the region, causing damage in several communities. And at least one neighborhood in East Houston saw extensive flooding inside of homes. Two people died from flooding in the area. Below is a listing of tornadoes in the region with this system and photos of flooding on the east side of Houston. October 31 Tornadoes: Angleton Tornado: Rated EF 0 (65-85mph) with a path length of nearly a mile and 40 yard wide. The tornado touched down in a subdivision and terminated at Brazos Mall with fences and trees knocked down in a subdivision SW of the mall and portions of the mall roof damaged. Figure 1: Flooding at interchange of Beltway 8 Danbury Tornado: and I-10 in east Houston on October 31st. Rated EF 1 (86-110mph) with a damage path of 3.7 miles and 50 yards wide. A farm house was severely damaged and 3 trailers at an RV park were flipped over. Alvin Tornado: *** 2 injured*** Rated EF 0 (65-85mph) with a damage path of nearly 1 mile and 30 yards wide. The tornado tracked through a mobile home park and damaged 15 to 20 trailer homes. 2 persons were injured with the tornado overturned their trailer as they slept. Friendswood Tornado: Rated EF 2 (111-135mph) with a damage path of 3 miles and width of 50 yards.

Pasadena/La Porte Tornado: Rated EF 2 (111-135mph) with a damage path of 2.25 miles and 150 yards wide. The tornado began near Genoa Red Bluff and Red Bluff in Pasadena and end near Spencer HWY and Myrtle Creek. There was exten- sive damage along the track with an industrial building and school suffering low end EF 2 damage. Several homes lost portions of their roofs with at least one

Rio Villa/Barrett Tornado: Rated EF 0 (65-85mph) with a damage path of 1/3rd of a mile and 50 yards wide. This tornado touched down in the Rio Villa subdivision on the San Jacinto River where several homes had roof damage and many trees were snapped midway above the ground. The tornado continued NE across the river and into the Bar- rett area where damage was mainly to trees and power lines. One mobile home was overturned and de- stroyed. Liverpool Tornado: Rated EF 0 (65-85mph) with a damage path of 0.92 miles and 40 yards wide. The tornado touched down in a field south of town and damaged a cattle handling area. It tracked into town and did mostly minor damage to trees and structures. The tornado apparently lifted north of town

September: The northern areas of the region had below rainfall with above normal temperatures for most of the month. This kept this part of the region in drought conditions all month. The central areas had more rainfall with some parts near normal while others received slightly more rainfall than normal. Temperatures in the central parts of the region were near nor- mal with some of the drier parts in the central areas slightly above normal. The southern parts of the region and costal counties had much above rainfall and above normal temperatures. Brazoria, Galveston, and Harris counties had the highest average rainfall by CoCoRaHS observers for the month. October: From October 1st -22nd most of the region received very little to no rainfall. Mostly clear days prevailed during this time. Temperatures during this time were much above normal region wide and daily high readings were in the low to mid 90’s on many days in the middle of the month. Rainfall for the region as a whole can be summarized as two big events on the 24th - 25th with the second event on the 31st which made for much above normal rainfall for all counties except for San Jacinto County. Severe weather and flooding were common during both events and more information is available in articles (Pages 9 –11)talking about these events and the details of areas affected. November: November was mostly a quiet month with some very nice weather early in the month with warm daytime highs and mild nights. Partly cloudy days were most common with highs in the mid 70’s to low 80’s on about 15 days of the month re- gion wide. Temperatures over most of the region averaged out slightly above normal with some fairly cool days and nights at the end of the month balancing out the higher temperature from earlier in the month. On the nights of the 22nd and 23rd most of the region had lows in the low to mid 30’s. The exception was the southern and eastern portions of the region which had much above normal temperatures due to very warm night time lows early in the month. Rainfall over most of region was near normal with the heavier rain days being on the 17th (mainly over the western and northern areas) and at the end of the month region wide.
